Masahiko was smiling, sitting cross-legged on the boulder, looking at the three-on-three battle going on before him.
After Karinās title was upgraded from āKunai Throwing Little Expertā to āBombardier,ā Kimimaroās team got a bit stronger.
With the pressure Onokiās disciples brought, the strength of the three of them has grown rapidly in the past month. From the initial three-on-two shameful lost to three-on-two glorious victory, and now a three-on-three shameful lostā¦
Naturally, the progress of Kimimaro and his friends also brought some pressure and motivation to Onokiās three disciples. A virtuous circle was expected, and they had also made some progress, especially Deidara, who had been able to produce some larger bombs lately. When it exploded, the first person to test its effects was Masahiko himselfā¦
As time passed, the balance of victory and defeat gradually tilted, and Kimimaroās team was in danger again. Masahiko got up and jumped off the boulder, preparing to stop the battle.
āThe battle lasted for 13 minutes, which is half a minute longer than yesterday.ā Masahiko nodded in satisfaction, āAt this rate of improvement, in two more months, they would be able to draw a tie. If they want to win, itās estimated that it will take a year of hard workā¦.ā
As he was about to act, Masahiko was surprised to find that Kimimaro had done something horrifying⦠he pulled out his spine and smashed with it the terracotta Earth Release.
āCan he do such a thing?ā Masahiko jumped on the boulder again, āTheyāre growing so fast.ā
ā¦ā¦.
Five minutes later, Masahiko shot to terminate the battle. The overall difference in strength is there. Even though Kimimaro broke his limit during this battle, they still ended up failing to defeat the other team.\n
At this time, Masahiko was performing medical Ninjutsu on Kimimaro.
āAlthough the hardness and strength of the spine bone are much higher than other bones, if Iām not by your side, you should never use this technique. It will make your disease worse.ā
Kimimaroās face turned red, āI see, God!ā
Karin pinched the clay on the side, then whispered, āElder, then teach me some medical Ninjutsu. I will always be by your side, Kimimaro-Kun.ā
āYouād better focus on the shapes of your clay. Medical Ninjutsu is not something you can learn in a day or two.ā
Karin bulged, slammed the clay in her hands to the ground, the shouted, āElder, why on earth do you want me to learn how to shape clay? I can squeeze them into balls and throw them. It will explode anyway, isnāt that enough?ā
āKeep it down, keep it down.ā Masahiko glanced at Kurotsuchi and the other two not far away. Because they felt the pressure from Kimimaro, the three were doing additional training at this time.
Karin curled her lips, āElder, how long do you think you can keep this hidden? Except for that idiot Deidara, the other two have guessed it already.ā
Masahiko shook his head helplessly and didnāt know whether Onoki did this on purpose. For the past month, not a single one in the village has paid attention to his disciples or the outsider they were spending some much with.
āAs long as that idiot Deidara doesnāt know so that he keeps dare to make interesting explosives to provoke me, and then I can bully him reasonably.ā
Karin looked at Masahiko with contempt and wanted to make fun of him, but she found that Kimimaro was looking at her and immediately replied, āYou⦠really⦠love the younger generation.ā\nIn order to gain Kimimaroās love, Karin is becoming more and more obedientā¦
The soft white light of the medical Ninjutsu in Masahikoās hands gradually faded, āOkay, Kimimaro.ā
āThank you, God, for the treatment.ā
Kimimaro stood up straight, stretched his muscles and joints, then looked at the clay in front of Karin, āKarin, you need to work harder.ā
āYes, Kimimaro-Kun.ā Being āencouragedā by Kimimaro made Karinās cheeks turn red and filled her heart with motivation.
Masahiko shook his head lightly and couldnāt bear to tell Karin that her Kimimaro-Kun feels dragged down by her since sheās too weak.
As he grew up, Kimimaroās militant and competitive spirits, which he has originally inherited from the Kaguya Clan, grew stronger. Just after receiving Masahikoās treatment, he started practicing again.
Five out of the six kids were training, only Haku stood on the edge of the cliff, using the telescope that Masahiko gave him to watch people coming and going out of Iwagakure. If it wasnāt for Masahikoās special status, he would have been arrested by the Anbu as a spy a long time ago.
āIs it interesting to watch people like that every day?ā Masahiko walked to Hakuās side.
Haku smiled sweetly and didnāt answer, āElder, thank you for the present.ā
āSo, whatās so good about it?ā Masahiko looked at Iwagakure from a distance.
Masahikoās eyesight was already very strong, and he could see clearly from a great distance, but watching the Village from two kilometers was too much.\n\nKurotsuchi had a pleased smile on her face, āItās okay, Iāll lose it again when you leave.ā
Masahiko felt a bit helpless, āStill, I wonāt cook for you today. Iām also the one paying for lunch. Isnāt that enough to satisfy you?ā
Masahiko turned around and suddenly felt that his heart jumped out of his chest.
A white cone-shaped crystal light beam suddenly cut the roof of the Tsuchikage building, then the clouds in the sky!
āThatās!!ā Karin widened her eyes.
Kurotsuchi and her friends looked at each other, then Akatsuchi said calmly, āThat seems to be Onoki-Samaās Dust Release.ā
āWhat kinds of madness have hit the old manās head to release this kind of thing inside the village?!ā Deidara asked in confusion.
āMasterā¦ā Kurotsuchi looked worried.
Masahiko frowned slightly. She knew best in her heart that it was indeed her masterās Dust Release.
